Visual Manna is all about learning with the visual and kinesthetic learning methods. Our art through the core series is available with hundreds of supplemental art projects and visuals that support core learning. Visual Manna is also about excellence in the visual arts. We have developed a week long comprehensive fine art high school credit. We can come and teach for a week and students can continue on to get AP credit if they choose to do so online. Students can take this course online from Sharon Jeffus. We will mentor students. Cost is $300 for two semesters. We also do mission trips to create beauty at homeless missions and community centers. We have a mission trip scheduled for Israel in May where students will do murals at Ariel University, along with many art and sightseeing opportunities. Families welcome. We also have free art lessons available at http://ourhomeschoolforum.com/author/sharon-jeffus/

Why Teach Art? Our Opinion in a Nutshell.

Art is very important! It is visual communication. It develops fine motor skills, encourages creative thinking and originality and effects our everyday life in profound ways. Understanding how visual communication influences nearly everything we do rests, I believe, in teaching students to have a good understanding of the elements and principles of art and how these are used in master art throughout the ages along with an understanding of a variety of techniques in media. All of this can be taught if each lesson if approached holistically. Which is why, by the way, Visual Manna exists! To bring that holistic approach is a format that is fun to learn and easy to teach.
